Was the Chicago group called Working Bikes?  They had a display at the top
of State Street during the Art Fair.  They were letting people try their
hands (or feet...) at powering pumps, generators and other machines with
bicycles.  And asking for bikes, of course; they have a drop-off point and
the CTM Family Theater warehouse on the East Side.

Their website it pretty interesting:  http://workingbikes.org
